Are you around 23st 7lb and on Slimming World ?

Paul you need to really just decide what diet you want to do and do it. You asked this same question about SW a while back and youre asking about other diets but wanting to do them in ways theyre not designed.

If you want to lose a stone a month you need to basically do a VLCD but a proper one, not one youre adapting. Get back on CD if thats what you feels best. If you dont want do go down the VLCD route then you need to resign yourself to smaller losses. VLCDs are hard hard work but the compensation is the weight loss. On SW youll be able to eat loads but you cant realistically expect to eat loads and lose the same as you would on 400/600kcals a day. You literally cant have your cake and eat it.

Im sorry that is just SO not the case. It doesnt matter a bit how you lose weight what determines your success is what you do once youve lost it, go back to your old eating habits and the weight will go back on no matter what diet youve lost it on.

There are as many restarters on SW/WW etc as there are on the VLCDs and just as many success stories on the VLCDS as there are on SW/WW

But that wasnt the fault of the diet. It did what it says on the tin, it got the weight off you. If it piled back on again afterwards thats not the fault of CD or whoever you lost it with.

I never said it was the fault of the diet, I was simply telling the op my experience by showing that with some diets even if you have a life wrecking experience some healthy eating plans are easier to follow than a very controlled vlcd. Meaning that on slimming world unlike a vlcd I could still stuff my face comfort eating but be making informed decisions on my snacks.

I've done a vlcd and although I lost weight quick it piled back on and more in a 3rd of the time!

I don't see where that sentence says that it was the diets fault?

I put the weight back on quickly because I got married and had a wonderful honeymoon - I think you misconstrued the point I was making in my post as a whole.
 
Well hopefully the op will read it and see I was trying to show that even if you are having a rough patch in your life you can still follow slimming world as was my experience :)
 
I started at 23 stone 7.5 lb and I've lost 5 stone 0.5 lb in 7 months. If I can do it anyone can! Slimming world just works and I never feel hungry. Good luck.
